- Jennifer Downey, Acupuncture Physician
I did an experiment and put your Soil Food on one bed of tomatoes this summer, and planted the same variety of tomatoes in another bed with a different fertilizer -- and the Soil Food tomatoes yielded more and sweeter tomatoes, hands down ... Such a deal! I'm super-happy with my Gainesville Compost service so far.
Rather than trucked to a landfill, your kitchen waste is pedaled to Community Composting Centers throughout a network of local partners, including:
Porters Community Farm · Opus Garden · Highlands Presbyterian Center · Tempo Bistro to Go · Cymply Fresh Cafe · Center for Innovation & Economic Development

- John Carter, Software EngineerWe moved from a house to a downtown apartment last year and needed a way to compost our food scraps but could hardly bring our composter with us ... We are extremely pleased with the service. It is one of those rare services that 'just works.'
